Ofsted: Requires improvement · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
1.9/10 Well below average

322nd of 340 primary schools in Hertfordshire we can score, 401 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.

Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 3.0/10 against 2,036 of them, against 2.8/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

How this is worked out
MeasurePercentileWeightAdds
Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 60.0 · 39 40% 1.56
Ofsted 3 35% 0.11
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 0.0 · 10 25% 0.26

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

Get to know the school

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 60% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school "Requires improvement" in July 2024. Its results are much the same when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so the gap is not explained by intake (3.0 out of 10 against similar schools, 2.8 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. An after-school club is available for pupils.

Getting in. The school has 160 pupils in a capacity of 210, leaving 50 spare places. This means the school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school plan to raise the percentage of pupils reaching the higher standard? What specific actions are being taken to address the "Requires improvement" rating? Since there is no breakfast club, what support is available for children arriving early?
